Three people were treated for shock and minor injuries after a car crashed into a tree in Chertsey .

The collision happened at around 6.40pm on Monday (October 17) at the junction of Kitsmead Lane and Longcross Road.

Surrey Police said a Toyota RAV4 was being driven along Longcross Road by a woman with her young daughter when the other vehicle, a Vauxhall Corsa, came “straight out of the junction into the path of the female”.

A spokesman for the force added; “The two vehicles have collided and the Corsa ended up against a tree off the carriageway with substantial damage.”

The woman and her daughter, plus the male driver of the Corsa, were treated at the scene by paramedics for “minor injuries and shock” before being taken home by family members.

The road was partially blocked for around two hours, and was fully closed for half an hour while the Corsa was removed from the undergrowth by Surrey Police’s recovery operator.
